Hi.
I got a ThinkPadT420 with a MiniDock 3. The docking got a DVI connector, in w7 it works, on xubuntu it does not. Probably because my laptop got a VGA connector, and xubuntu doesn't get the deal with the docking.
It would be nice if I could close the lid on my laptop, and only use the external monitor using DVI (through the docking). Maybe use VGA and DVI, both at once (if I can get another monitor and a VGA cable, that is).
Can I get any help here? I tried to download "arandr", it can't detect any external monitor... :(
Thanks
